Running a service-based business, I occasionally need to call clients internationally. It's never a long call, but it's always important. I got so tired of the whole process. My cell provider's international rates were a mystery, and the call quality was always a gamble. I'd get a bill later with vague charges, or the call would drop right in the middle of a crucial conversation. It felt unprofessional and was stressing me out. As a developer, I finally just built a simple web tool for myself. The only goal was transparency: you see the cost per minute before you call, and it works right in the browser. No contracts, no monthly fees. I even made it open source so everything is out in the open. I've been using it for a few months now and it's solved my problem. You can see what I put together at [b2kall](https://b2kall.vercel.app/). I'm curious, for those of you who have to make international business calls, how do you handle it? Have you found a reliable method, or is it just an accepted cost and hassle of doing business?
